Revising published content

Last updated: August 11, 2026

Published content is edited through a revision. The live version stays exactly as it is while you work, and members continue to see it until you choose to publish your changes.

How a revision works

Editing a published piece starts a revision. From that point:

  • The live content is untouched. Members see the published version, not your edits

  • Your edits are saved as you go. Closing the form and reopening it brings your work back

  • Nothing changes for members until you publish the revision

Publishing a revision

Publishing replaces the live content with your revised version.

This happens regardless of how far members have progressed through the original. Someone partway through the content will see the new version.

Discarding a revision

Discarding throws away the revision and leaves the live content as it was. Your edits are lost.

Drafts do not create revisions

Editing a draft is just editing. No revision is created, because there is no live version to protect.

Note the difference from unpublished content that has been through approval: editing content that has not yet been published returns it to draft and it must be approved again. Revisions apply only to content that is already live.

Reaching the edit form

Going directly to the edit form for published content takes you to its detail page instead. Start the revision from there.

Creator Studio and teleprompter content

Studio content and teleprompter videos revise the same way. While a teleprompter is in revision, its create and update controls are hidden until the revision is published or discarded.
